Going back to Stock muffler
Hi. My KDX came with a FMF muffler and a FMF fat pipe. I want to buy a stock muffler from Ebay to quiet the bike down.
(1) Is stock muffler compatible with my FMF fat pipe?
(2) If I install a stock muffler, will I need to rejet the bike?

you're not losing any power when installing the stock muffler nothing wrong in wanting a quieter bike and virtually no power loss...

As you like. I didn't really notice much difference in noise level between the FMF, DG, or stock silencer. The stock double walled expansion chamber soaks up a lot of noise. I'd wager that the stock expansion chamber with either silencer would be quieter than an aftermarket expansion chamber and stock silencer. Be a fun test, anyway.

Carvr's stock pipe is so quiet you can't tell when he is right on your six

He stated with that figure with the turbine core, but that's crazy quiet with stock. Need to get my bike tested, but I have never ran into freaking ranger. Its way quieter than the PC S/A that came on it. FMF claim 96DB with the Q silencer, which is their second most quiet silencer, first being the Q stealth..
